Patent EP-2691694-A2 (EP)
Title: Light-output device with movable light-guide system
Inventor: VISSENBERG MICHEL CORNELIS JOSEPHUS MARIE
IPC: F21V8/00
Filed: 2012-03-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a light-output device (1; 10; 30) controllable to provide different light-output functions. The light-output device comprises a light-source arrangement (12; 31) configured to emit light; and a light-guiding system (10; 32) arranged to receive the light and configured to guide the light to at least one light-output surface of the light-guiding system. The light-guiding system (10; 32) comprises at least a first light-guide (11b; 37) and a second light-guide (11a; 40, 41); and the light-guiding system (10; 32) is movable relative to the light-source arrangement (12; 31) between at least a first position where light output by the light-source arrangement is guided by the first light-guide (11b; 37) to provide a first light-output function, and a second position where light output by the light- source arrangement is guided by the second light-guide (11a; 40, 41) to provide a second light-output function, different from the first light-output function. The present invention is based on the realization that different light-output functions conveniently and intuitively can be achieved by moving a light-guiding system comprising at least two light-guides relative to a stationary light-source arrangement. Hereby, different light-output functions can be achieved with a single stationary light-source arrangement.

Abstract: A machine vision system for use with a system that takes frozen sample cores from samples that are in containers includes a camera. A processor is configured to receive image data from the camera and to determine locations where frozen sample cores have already been taken. A method of determining one or more locations where a frozen sample core have already been taken from frozen samples includes operating a robotic system to position one of the containers on a platform at a station for receiving the container while a frozen sample core is extracted from the frozen sample contained in the container. The camera is used to capture an image of the frozen sample. Contrast in the captured image is evaluated to identify one or more bore candidates. The processor uses the image to determine whether or not the bore candidates are real bores or artifacts.

Title: Terminal activation method and terminal
Inventor: YANG ZHENJIE
IPC: G06F9/445
Filed: 2013-07-18
Abstract: Provided are a terminal and a method for activating a terminal to facilitate awakening the terminal by a user in a dark environment. The method for activating a terminal includes: when the terminal is in a dormancy state, it is detected whether a screen triggering signal is received that meets a preset condition; if the screen triggering signal is received that meets the preset condition, a light emitting module arranged near a dormancy awakening key is lighted; an awakening signal generated by pressing the dormancy awakening key by a user is received and the terminal is activated upon receiving the awakening signal. Through implementation of the present disclosure, when a user needs to activate the terminal in a dark environment, he/she only needs to perform on the screen a slide operation or a long-press click operation that meets a condition so that the light emitting module can be lighted, and with the guidance of the light emitting module, the terminal is easily activated through the dormancy awakening key, thus avoiding blind operation and improving user experiences.
